Fortunately, this can be accomplished by simply interrogating the User Agent property or environment variable.

var useragent = navigator.userAgent;
if (useragent.match(/Android/i)) {
// This is an Android device

Using RPG Code:

useragent = %str(getenv('HTTP_USER_AGENT'));
If %scan('Android' : useragent) > 0;
// This is an Android device
EndIf;
/End-Free

Using PHP Code:

$useragent = $_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'];
